I have noticed that people who often cry freedom usually mean that to be the freedom to suffer, the freedom to be exploited, the freedom to have everyday choices blow up in your face as to destroy them and their families.
I’m sure that the TV reporter just loves the freedom to be fired for joking on a blog. I’m sure the many people who have posted rants about their jobs on their personal Facebooks love having the freedom of their boss to snoop into their lives and be fired, I’m sure that the single-parent family suffering in poverty because the layoff that caused the parent to lose their job because their CEO can get a bonus believes in exactly the kind of freedom you do
Freedom is a means to an end, it is not intrinsically good in and of itself. If more freedom means more unhappiness, more poverty, more crime, and more suffering, then I wish we have less freedom, as much less as it takes to lower poverty, lower crime, and lower suffering
If you love freedom so much, move to Somalia. I hear they don’t even have laws there, its paradise :rolleyes:
